kay kuan, ambongan jud kaayo siya nga pagkanilalang hahaha. bitaw, seriously, if we compare him to the rest of the legends guys, he's mighty miles ahead, in my opinion. he doesn't just fight the bad guys. he invents things he uses to fight the bad guys. and his things are really sophisticated and extreme. more than that, he can transform into a literal atom, which is incredible compared to arrow's 'suit up' theme. further still, raymond palmer is like howard stark, which i just realized now diay, but without the super-inflated ego. filthy rich boy geniuses with vast resources. and.. he's a kingkoy. padung na fangirling, sori. hahaha
so, basically ang fighting abilities (think sara, though not jud sa assassin-level), having cool toys (think captain cold and his bff), and having brains (think professor stein) naa ni mighty mite. they can do a lot with his character, way mooore than arrow and his eye mask. so, sayang that atom is relegated to just being 'one of the' sa legends of tomorrow.
ang backstory ni atom naa sa arrow, which is why i followed that oliver queen series. although 'gipatay' na siya didto, he appears there occasionally. so, mao na siya. longish post na pud.
